HPOZ

What are the benefits of HPOZ?

While benefits may go farther than those listed here, the following are just a few:

  • Neighborhood Homogeneity:  HPOZ will minimize the possibility of homeowners converting homes into multi-family uses.
  • Distinguishing Neighborhood Traits: The historic character of properties within the neighborhood will be retained and preserved.
  • Value Appreciation:  Home prices in LaFayette Square should continue to appreciate.
  • Value Stability:  HPOZ should protect the volatility of home prices during economic downturns.
  • Restoration/Rehabilitation Assistance:  By reviewing neighborhood projects, the HPOZ Board can assist homeowners with some of the challenges of a project, thus saving time and money.
  • Potential Tax Benefits:  Through the Mills Act.
  • Neighborhood Appeal & Marketability:  HPOZ makes a neighborhood very attractive and desirable.
  • Local, Regional and National Recognition:  LaFayette Square has been identified as an area having historic, architectural, and cultural significance.
  • Resident Legacy:  HPOZ will give parents and grandparents an opportunity to promote preservation through education by encouraging children to take interest in cultural, social, economic, and architectural aspects of our neighborhood history.
